renaming

Hi there,
is there a way to batch-rename images so that the raw and jpg or png keep the same name in front of the extension? E.g.: 01.dng --> name01.dng 01.jpg --> name01.jpg 02.dng --> name02.dng 02.jpg --> name02.jpg If I use the normal rename it just renames the pictures in the order they are sorted by. (01.dng --> name01.dng 01.jpg --> name02.jpg 02.dng --> name03.dng 02.jpg --> name04.jpg) -- Sincerely, Andreas T.

XnView MP has that option. The option is 'rename alternate image' or 'rename with 1 step',I don't remember the exact wording now. XnView MP was available in PCLinuxOS,but now I am using Mint9 as my Wacom Bamboo CTH was not working in PCLinuxOS. I don't know which distro you are using but you can install the Window's version in Wine if you want.

Why not simply use a shell/DOS script? That's what they are for, IMHO.

You probably have your rename string set to something like "name#" so it uses the name and appends the a numerical sequence to every photo regardless of extension. Instead, try "name[file]" as the rename string. The original filename will be used and the "name" part will just be prepended.

Hi Francis,

The camera names the images like IMG0908.JPG and IMG0908.DNG (I usually shoot dual dng and jpg). The renames vary, usually either the date the shot was done, or like for holidays where we were, turning them to something like Nepal001.JPG and Nepal001.DNG. I certainly have thought about learning more about shell programming, but time is always short and there are so much more things I like to do with it, I never really came around to do it. So for me 'simply' using a shell script is only simple if I find a finished one. ;-) And it would be easier to integrate it in my digikam workflow. > Francis > > _______________________________________________ > Digikam-users mailing list > [hidden email] > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users > -- Schöne Grüße, Andreas 24 The Birches Shobdon Herefordshire HR6 9NG GB Mobile: +44.(0)7526.315292 Tel.: +44.(0)1568.709166 http://spheniscid.net _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

A quick search (aptitude and google) didn't give me a package, and I'd rather prefer to keep it in digikam. But thank you for the input. -- Sincerely, Andreas T.

What I do at the moment looks like this: newname-##.[ext], as I usually don't want to keep the old name. But for the sake of speed it might well be worth it. > Best, > JDR > -- Andreas Ege 24 The Birches Shobdon Herefordshire HR6 9NG GB Mobile: +44.(0)7526.315292 Tel.: +44.(0)1568.709166 http://spheniscid.net _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |
